For Liu Jian, his current development in Jizhou is in full swing, whether it is agriculture or people's livelihood, they are developing in a thriving direction.

After all, the foundation of Jizhou itself is very good, as long as it can occupy the initiative in the game with the local nobles, with the size of Jizhou, it is not difficult to achieve cross-era development.

But during Liu Jian's governance of Jizhou, he was not able to act completely rashly, because there were also a few nails next to Jizhou, although they did not pose a huge threat to him, but they also made him choke in his throat and a little uncomfortable.

He couldn't do anything about these nails just yet.

One is Zhang Yi, the assassin of Bingzhou, and the other is Ding Yuan, the cavalry commander stationed in Hanoi.

Liu Jian knew in his heart that these two were pawns sent by the Yuan family to be placed next to him in Jizhou.

Being watched all the time is nothing to him, but it is not very comfortable for Liu Jian.

After all, no one likes to have so many annoying stalkers next to their forces.

……

……

In Luoyang City, Liu Bei finally persuaded Lu Qiang, telling him to protect his life well, don't do something stupid, especially at this juncture, he must hide and shrink his head, don't easily provoke others, and don't come out in vain.

In addition, Liu Bei also informed Lu Qiang that now that the rain in the mountains of Luoyang City is coming, and the outer feudal towns will enter Luoyang in a few days, and he asked Lu Qiang to report illness at home and not go to the imperial city again, which is the greatest protection for himself.

Lu Qiang's heart was a little reluctant, he had gone through three dynasties, and he was also a character who had experienced strong winds and waves, but he had never taken leave to hide at home.

It's a shame.

But in the face of Liu Bei's earnest advice, Lu Qiang finally let go of his arrogance and agreed to Liu Bei's request.

As for how to act in the future, it depends on what the situation is after Luoyang.

Liu Bei promised Lu Qiang that he would find a way to communicate with him at any time and discuss how to stabilize the situation in the Han court.

After appeasing Lü Qiang, Liu Bei returned to Liu Jian's mansion.

Although Liu Bei is now one of the eight captains of the West Garden, he still lives in Liu Jian's mansion in Luoyang, not for anything else, just to be able to protect his wife and children in Beijing for Liu Jian at a critical moment.

Liu Jian's entrustment is very important to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei had just returned to Liu Jian's mansion when he saw Yu Ze hurriedly coming to report to him, saying that Yuan Ji had visited him late at night and was now waiting for him in the hall.

When Liu Bei heard the news, he was a little nervous, because he couldn't figure out what Yuan Ji's intention was in the middle of the night.

But then, he was relieved.

At this time, Yuan Ji's eyes should not be on their brothers, as he thought correctly, the main reason why Yuan Ji came here was for Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing.

Liu Bei tidied up his clothes and came to the main hall to meet Yuan Ji.

Yuan Ji was sitting bored in the hall at the moment, and when he saw Liu Bei entering the main hall, he asked: "Xuande is not resting in the house in the middle of the night, but he is still working around, which is very hard." ”

As soon as Liu Bei heard what Yuan Ji said, his mind changed slightly, and he hurriedly explained: "Don't blame the prince, there will be a big event in today's Luoyang City, this person knows everything and everyone is in danger, prepare the surrounding counties, and have very shallow connections in Beijing. ”

Yuan Ji sneered: "Then why don't you come to me?" ”

"The prince is in charge of the overall situation of Luoyang, and he has a major stake, how can he have the leisure to take care of Liu Bei? Bei also didn't want to make trouble for the prince. ”

Yuan Ji was not angry when he heard this, on the contrary, he was quite relieved because of Liu Bei's "honesty".

"Don't worry, with Yuan in one day, you won't be able to move a hair of your Liu Xuande!"

"Thank you, Prince."

Yuan Ji saw that Liu Bei was still standing at the door of the hall, so he said: "This is your home, how can you still stand in the door?" Let me sit here alone as an outsider? Sit down, in front of me, no need to be polite! ”

"Thank you, Prince."

Liu Bei thanked Yuan Ji, and then sat opposite Yuan Ji.

"Xuande, the relationship between me and your brother, you also know, in the past, I used Deran as a helper, big and small, please Deran to help me decide, now Deran is not in Beijing, some things Yuan has no bottom in his heart, think about it, that is, come to discuss with you."

Liu Bei suddenly showed surprise when he heard this.

"How can you plan for the prince and the marquis? The prince really thinks too highly of me! ”

Yuan Ji waved his hand and said: "Xuande Mo should be humble, since you are a brother who grew up together since you were a child, you must have something in common in your actions on weekdays!" ”

Liu Bei was silent for a while, and then he slowly spoke: "If the prince can trust Liu Bei, then Liu should do his best, but what he said is right or not, and the prince needs to judge himself." ”

Yuan Ji laughed: "You kid is modest, this is right." ”

Subsequently, Yuan Ji summoned his uncle Yuan Kui to Beijing to punish the eunuchs, and roughly described it to Liu Bei.

He had already informed Liu Deran of this matter in writing, and Yuan Ji didn't believe that Liu Jian would hide it from Liu Bei, so his words could barely be regarded as frank.

But he alone concealed their true purpose of finding Dong Zhuo to enter Beijing.

But even if Yuan Ji deliberately concealed it, with Liu Bei's wisdom, how could he not guess that the real purpose of the Yuan family's transfer of Dong Zhuo into Beijing was to let him assist in seizing power.

As for whether to kill the eunuch or not, it is just a cover-up.

The ten permanent servants are already the turtles in the urn, and it is not a matter of words to kill or chop.

However, seeing through it without saying it is the way to be an official.

Liu Bei pondered for a moment, and finally spoke slowly: "Junhou, according to Beiguan, now the General's Mansion has ordered Dong Zhuo to enter Beijing, the matter has come to this point, I am afraid that it will be difficult to change, but the people that the prince and the marquis are worried about are nothing more than Dong Zhuo holding heavy troops, which will pose a threat to Jinggi, but everyone knows that it is difficult to break one person, and it is easy to break two people, Dong Zhuo has soldiers and generals in his hands. ”

When Yuan Ji heard this, he suddenly woke up: "What does Xuande mean...?" ”

Liu Bei arched his hand and said loudly: "Ding Yuan, who is stationed in the river, and Zhang Yi, the assassin of Bingzhou, is the closest to Luoyang, and they are all Yuan's henchmen, the prince may wish to ask the general to transfer them to lead the troops to Luo, and get rid of the eunuchs and thieves, although Dong Zhuo has heavy troops in Liangzhou, it is impossible to pour all the people here, at most it is only thousands of elites, according to the opinion, Ding Yuan and Zhang Yi are enough to balance Dong Zhuo!" ”

These words can be regarded as speaking to Yuan Ji's heart.

He clapped his hands heavily and said: "This is true, Ding and Zhang are both under the orders of my Yuan family, if there are two of them, Dong Zhuo dares to act disobediently, I should use this two people to control him,"

"But Ruoding, Zhang and the others have different intentions, I should use Dong Zhuo to control them, no matter what, Yuan can be invincible!"

Liu Bei arched his hand and said: "The prince said yes, and what he said can be described as three points into the bones. ”

"Xuande, you are really a good soldier!" Yuan Ji praised with satisfaction.

Liu Bei hurriedly said: "How dare you praise the Marquis of Lao!" ”

"No, Yuan is not mistaken, you are a capable person, very strategic, from today on, Yuan should use you as a helper, hahaha, God can be regarded as treating me well, Deran is not in the capital, but there is Liu Xuande to complement him, it is really Yuan's great luck!"

But in fact, Liu Bei didn't think so much at the moment, but Yuan Jishi asked him about it, and he felt that why not take this opportunity to transfer Zhang Yi and Ding Yuan, who were in charge of monitoring Liu Jian, to the capital in Bingzhou and Hanoi, which could be regarded as pulling out his two nails around Jizhou for Deran.

After all, Liu Jian had mentioned this matter to Liu Bei in his letter before.

And what Liu Jian mentioned, Liu Bei is generally very concerned.
